Hi there! With a bit of extra time on my hands, I’m excited to find new rewarding ways to help out in my community—whether it’s caring for little ones, seniors, or the family pet. As a mom of three, grandmother of three, and a former K-3 teacher (B.S. Ed from Miami University), I bring a wealth of experience and a calm, organized energy to every home. Beyond my background as a YMCA camp director, I am a graduate of the Paws-Ability dog training program and am comfortable caring for everything from high-energy dogs like my Australian Shepherd, Piper, to smaller friends like turtles and birds. I find working with children, the elderly, and pets to be very rewarding. Part of my volunteer experience includes spending time with Veterans in assisted living or memory care. I love hearing stories they share about their life and watching their face light up as they relive the memory. I have learned so much from the wealth of knowledge elderly have. Watching children master tasks they are given because of your guidance is so satisfying. Just being around the pure, genuine, honest, curious, carefree and unfiltered perspective on the world that children have is so refreshing. It motivates me to provide them with the best possible environment to keep that curiosity alive. The unconditional bond that develops as you work with animals is so pure and incredibly rewarding. Animals don’t have hidden agendas, they love you unconditionally. They are loyal and are always so happy to see you. My current work in accessibility has given me a deep appreciation for clear communication and attentive care. I treat every loved one with the same respect and joy I give my own family, and I look forward to helping yours!"
Hi! I’m Tre’ci, I am offering weekend and date night child care! I am a medical assistant with five years experience in pediatrics! I am CPR/first aid certified in all ages. I love being able to help families take care of their littles! I have been babysitting for over 10 years, with experience from newborns to preteens. My responsibilities have included but not limited to, preparing meals and feeding children, pickup/drop off to school/daycare and extra circular activities, light house work and taking the kids out for adventures!
Hi! My name is Julie and I live in Cincinnati, Ohio. I’ve worked all kinds of care jobs over the years. I’ve worked as a babysitter, nanny, and in senior care positions both privately and professionally. I have more than 10 years experience with newborns, children and teenagers. I’m 56 years old and am looking to make some extra money in a rewarding part time care job! I’m offering both child care and senior care positions. I have a great sense of humor, a positive outlook, am punctual and reliable. I am pet friendly and have 2dogs of my own.
Hi! My name is Anna-Faith, I am a recent graduate from the University of Kentucky, and I just moved to Cincinnati from Lexington, KY. Over 6 years ago, I began my professional childcare journey in high school when I became a nanny to 4 girls, ranging from ages 3 to 11. This really kickstarted my love for working with kids, and I went on to nanny for 3 other families after this, babysitting for many others in between. My most recent work was at the Tates Creek Community Center in Lexington, KY, where I was able to meet and form deep connections with the people and kids that came to the center. I taught many kids how to crochet, how to cook, and organized fun activities and events. Through these experiences, I gained crucial experience working with infants, children with physical disabilities, mental and cognitive disabilities, behavioral issues, and ADHD. In my years of experience, I have worked with many different families with a diverse range of backgrounds, belief systems, and lifestyles. This has given me an extensive set of skills to adapt to different situations, and meet your child(ren) where they are now. I also understand that many things come along with taking care of children, such as meal prep, laundry, cleaning, homework, etc. and I would be happy to discuss in detail how I might help you and your family make life a little easier. When I am not working with kids, I really enjoy walking and hiking, playing pickleball, making and trying new foods, traveling, and spending time with my husband and our dog, Maisy. My favorite show is Gilmore girls, and my favorite food is probably chicken wings, but it’s really too hard to decide (I’m a big foodie and LOVE to cook and bake with the kids). I look forward to meeting you soon! Anna-Faith

"UrbanSitter is my go-to for quality sitters! I can book weeks ahead of time or easily find a same-day sitter when in a bind. I even hired a part-time nanny during a daycare transition. Customer service is helpful and babysitters respond in a timely manner."
